Agreed. He pulls votes away from the democratic candidate.

You quoted 1/13th of what I said in a previous post. Not that I care, but it's not something to bring up in an argument.

You doubt it? Maybe you should ask the casualties.

And Gekko, why should Jason be shot?
Because he's anti-guns, and an anti-gun guy getting shot would be hilarious. It's like when Ghandi got shot, that was awesome.

Well, Gekko ae you anti-abortion and pro-guns?
I could care less about abortion, and guns are awesome.

Only the first line of the reply was directed at him. The rest were just general comments.

I think I like this Strangler guy.

And yes, I drive on the right side of the road.

It almost sounds as if you're passing Democrats off as stupid... That the type of person who would vote for Nader would vote for Kerry. I would feel uneasy if Nader-voters decided my President by voting for Kerry if Nader didn't run.

Then again, Nader voters who would also vote for Kerry are just the "don't vote Bush" people... who I also wouldn't want to decide my president, as they are far too influenced by a force similar to Peer Pressure.

Hmmm.

I swear, if I had a dollar for every time I saw the same few people argue back and forth, I'd be a millionaire by now.

If i had a dollar for every time ive heard an analogy similar to that, i would be a millionaire by now.


Oh....wait...I already am. :p



And the same people argue, because all the arguments are basically the same, except worded differently.

Personally, I wouldn't vote for Bush, but even you liberals haven't named any of the good reasons not to vote for him. But since there's not a better candidate than Bush, I will vote for him. The last thing I would do is try to ruin a country by voting for an anti-military **** during a time when the country is fighting a war on two fronts, and facing increased security threats. Voting for Kerry just because he's not Bush is just ****ing stupid. Vote for the better candidate, and Kerry is a dumb ****.

I agree whole heartedly anyone who is willing to put a country in peril by decreasing the people that keep it free in my book is a complete and utter Idiot. I'm a republican by trade and bush didn't do that bad from what he recieved from the clinton administration. So if you vote kerry you're voting for osama himself.





{Edit} Hey if your going to -rep me for my opinion.. Atleast have the balls to put your name and a rebuttle ... Asinine doesn't cut it as a good enough rebuttle for me..

Re: Why not vote Bush?
 
Kerry is not anti-military. He actually wants to increase military pay (which Bush cut) and invest in modern weaponry. He also wants to increase reservest presence and possibly create an entirely new infantry division. He's against NMD but that system is at best barely functional. The only successful tests involved conditions which were hardly typical.

John Kerry voted against TRICARE health coverage and health benefits for reservists

(Incase your wondering TRICARE is the health provider for the entire military) Adding this to the military ticket would get so many more supporters and then they would never have to bring the draft back.


Quote:

John Kerry has voted against pay raises for our troops at least 21 different times
So saying that he's going to do it and actually doing it are 2 diffrent things

Quote:

John Kerry voted against the $87 billion to support our men and women in uniform. The $87 billion included funds for body armor, meal allowance, and hazard pay among others
If you see the IBA then you'll know it neets better shoulder protection and side protection.. and he voted against it :WTF:


This was on john kerry's website..
Quote:

“The Bush Administration decided to put politics above public health by withholding tens of millions of dollars that could help prevent needless deaths of mothers, infants and children. Presidential leadership is necessary to stabilize and rebuild troubled regions of the developing world, and to promote the rights and well-being of parents, children and families around the globe. As President, I will restore U.S. funding to the United Nations Population Fund and reassert America's leadership in the fight for women’s health both at home and around the world.”

Wow just running the debt deeper like kerry wanted... Notice a Trend. But insted of just giving money to the UN Bush took a dictator out of power..

Re: Why not vote Bush?
 
I'm not going to quote everything here, but I'll put down some points that jumped out at me:

1) Kerry will increase the number of troops and increase their pay and benefits. If you believe this, you're a complete friggin' moron. Sorry, but you are. Kerry's voting record contradicts this in every way imaginable. He's voted to cut spending in every area of national defense he had the opportunity to. There is no way that a Kerry presidency will increase troops in the middle east or increase benefits and salaries WITHOUT cutting the number of personnel. Remember I said this when Kerry wins, and yes, he will win unless Bush gets Osama.

2) Cutting tax breaks for the rich. Man, its a damn shame that we have let liberals program our nation for class warfare. Listen to me very cafrefully here... RICH PEOPLE ARE GOOD FOR THE NATION. THEY PAY YOUR, MINE AND YOU PARENTS SALARIES. WITHOUT RICH PEOPLE, YOU WOULD STARVE IN A CAPATALIST SOCIETY. We demonize Enron, and rightfully so, and then apply that stereotype on every corporation, no matter how many SUV's they put in our driveways. Wake up.

3) People love to say we should have let the UN help. Please explain to me exactly what the UN hasn't botched in the last 10 years. Oil for Food? LOL. Rwanda? LOL. Bosnia? LOL. Yeah, lets trust them.

Re: Why not vote Bush?
 
I think by now we know Strangler that you hate the UN. I know that somethings didn't go as planned or something along those lines. But when you tell a "league of nations" the UN (that your on) F*ck you, we are going alone, it rings a bell to the other countries. They start thinking differently about the US. If any other country in the UN told them "Screw you, we are gonna fight that country without your support" other countries would look at that country, laugh, and never give support because they never requested support. But with Bush ya know, he goes alone and then says "Please send us troops even though we basically gave you all the finger back then"
